Same with our driver! We have 6wd with white higrip wheens on the rear (4) and omnis on the front. We were initially seeking a higher traction alternative but he likes the slippyness of the white kit wheels. : shrug :

Great robot. You guys are gonna be a force at SVR this weekend. I almost think a 4 wheel drive robot with the 27 inch square frame would be better than a 6.

No rock gives a more consistent shooting solution.

That's awesome! Slipperiness side to side, but not forward and backwards, has been a good thing for us, glad to see other teams having similar experiences.

Thank you! This same train of thought is why we decided to build a 6 wheel drivetrain with no drop, using the omniwheels to make sure we could still turn on a dime. It's worked great for us. Look forward to seeing you around at SVR!
